Model details

The Lynk & Co 01 is based on the Compact Modular Architecture platform, developed by China Euro Vehicle Technology AB (CEVT), [9] a platform which also underpins the Volvo XC40. The 01 will share much of its components with the XC40, including its electrical architecture, engines and safety systems. [10]

[13] The Lynk & Co 01 was initially manufactured by Volvo in Luqiao district in the city of Taizhou, China, in the same production line as Volvo XC40 and Polestar, [14] [15] [16] but production was later moved to the Lynk & Co Meishan island plant 50 km from Ningbo.
